Van Nuys
$100,000 - $200,000
Project Description
Before the remodel, this Van Nuys kitchen was constrained by a jutting peninsula that interrupted circulation and made hosting difficult. Movement through the space was forced around obstacles instead of flowing naturally, and the kitchen carried additional utility functions, including the laundry, that further compromised how the room was used.
The redesign focused on correcting the layout first. The peninsula condition was removed and replaced with a cleaner island configuration, restoring usable floor area and opening up sightlines. Laundry was relocated, storage was re-planned, and work zones were clarified so the kitchen could function as a gathering space rather than a bottleneck.
This transformation wasn’t about adding features, it was about removing friction.
